    Fair enough, cutting out housing and food expenses would definitely go a long way, that’s easily the majority of my personal post-tax costs.

    I’m glad those opportunities were available for you to get on your feet and built a cushion. My parents booted me out with 70k in student debt, though it’s been a decade and I’ve dug myself out of it and built a life, it still feels like there’s no escaping the treadmill.
